Newterra’s MBR systems combine biological treatment with advanced membrane filtration to deliver superior effluent quality in a compact footprint. We offer configurable, custom, and remote solutions for projects ranging from small rural communities to large industrial facilities, with faster delivery times and scalable system designs.
Every membrane bioreactor (MBR) system starts with the same goal—clean, consistent water quality. Newterra takes that foundation further with modular engineering, advanced controls, and decades of hands-on experience in domestic and industrial wastewater projects. From faster installations to simplified maintenance, our systems are built to perform reliably for the long term.

Systems are built in prefabricated modules that can easily expand or reconfigure as flow and capacity requirements grow.
Proprietary solutions, such as our patented side-access membrane removal, eliminate the need for overhead cranes and streamline maintenance compared to traditional top-access designs.
Prefabricated, factory-tested units minimize fieldwork and installation time—and adapt seamlessly to both greenfield builds and existing facility upgrades.
Integrates with secure digital tools that enable real-time performance tracking and alerts from anywhere in the world.
Advanced MBR technology condenses waste more effectively than conventional systems, significantly reducing hauling costs and the frequency of disposal.
Full startup assistance, operator training, and expert support from initial assessment through design, installation, and ongoing operation keep your system performing at its best.

Whether you need a prefabricated unit for a housing development, a modular system for an expanding plant, an independent system for a remote site, or anything in between, our MBR technology adapts to your needs.
Small Community / Development
Small Community / Development
Newterra’s pre-engineered MBR systems are sized for flows under 100,000 GPD, offering communities and residential developments a compact, cost-effective solution. Fast delivery and simple installation mean clean water sooner — with room to grow.
Large Municipal / Industrial
Large Municipal / Industrial
For higher-demand applications between 100,000 GPD and 1.5 MGD, Newterra delivers custom modular and skid-mounted MBR systems engineered to your exact specifications. Scalable architecture ensures your system keeps pace as capacity requirements evolve.
Remote Camp / Resort / Mining
Remote Camp / Resort / Mining
Self-contained MBR systems designed for off-grid sites handle flows under 50,000 GPD with minimal operator involvement. Portable, durable, and built for harsh environments — delivering reliable treatment where conventional infrastructure isn’t an option.
| Project Type | Typical Flow Range | Deployment Approach | Key Features |
|---|---|---|---|
| Small Community / Development | < 100,000 GPD | Pre-engineered/Configurable | Compact • Low cost • Fast delivery |
| Large Municipal / Industrial | 100,000 GPD – 1.5 MGD | Custom Modular/Skid Mounted | Scalable • Tailored • Expandable |
| Remote Camp / Resort / Mining | < 50,000 GPD | Self-Contained Remote | Independent • Portable • Low maintenance |

Newterra’s MBR systems integrate with secure digital platforms that give operators real-time visibility into system performance from anywhere. Automated alerts, remote diagnostics, and data logging reduce the need for on-site visits while keeping your system running at peak efficiency. Whether managing a single installation or a network of sites, our digital tools simplify oversight and support proactive maintenance before issues arise.
From system sizing and installation to remote monitoring and long-term maintenance, we’ve answered the questions our clients ask most. Don’t see what you’re looking for? Reach out to our team directly.
An MBR combines conventional biological wastewater treatment with membrane filtration to produce high-quality effluent in a compact system. Microorganisms break down contaminants, and ultrafiltration membranes then separate treated water from solids — eliminating the need for a secondary clarifier and delivering consistently clean output.
Our patented side-access membrane removal allows operators to service membranes at ground level without overhead cranes or heavy lifting equipment. This reduces downtime, lowers maintenance costs, and makes routine servicing safer and more efficient compared to traditional top-access designs.
Yes. Newterra’s modular MBR systems are designed with scalability in mind. Additional modules can be integrated into the existing system as flow requirements increase, protecting your initial investment and avoiding costly full-system replacements down the road.
Absolutely. Our self-contained remote MBR systems are engineered for independence — requiring minimal infrastructure, low operator oversight, and reliable performance in challenging environments like mining camps, resorts, and rural communities.

Partner with Newterra to bring advanced membrane bioreactor solutions to your facility. Together, we’ll design a system built around your specific flow, capacity, and compliance needs.
